Embroidery Stitch Book Kit with 106 Patterns, 86-Piece Portable Set, Pre-Printed Fabric Guide, Zippered Case, Threads, Needles, Scissors, for Beginners and Adults

This is an OK set, but you get better value as a sewing kit - all the items included are useful - rather than practice for embroidery (which is what I was interested in). My rating is based on the fact that you do get useful needles and thread for your money. The book that comes is very small and quite roughly put together. Each fabric 'page' has a selection of stitches for you to practice - but some of the labels are badly spelt and the only explanation on how to actually do the stitches is a folded instruction sheet with basic instructions. I'm not even sure how you are easily supposed to sew onto the pages (as a beginner), since they are folded so that you have to sew on both sides of a page and it's difficult to manoeuvre the needle on the back side.

I’ve been using this kit and it’s exactly what I needed to get started with embroidery. Everything you need comes included, threads, needles, scissors, pre printed fabric, even a guide with many patterns. The book style design keeps it all neatly together and makes it really easy to carry around or just leave on the sofa while I stitch. The materials feel good quality for the price, and the step by step guide makes learning new stitches much less intimidating. For anyone starting out or looking for a portable, complete set, this is excellent value and a fun way to get creative without hunting for extra supplies.

Really disappointed in this, as when I opened it all the wording is wrong butterhole when it should be buttonhole, Lang doing instead of lazy daisy just some of the mistakes. Instructions also don't tell you how to do all the stitches. Threads in the case whilst nice range of colours are just sewing threads not embroidery threads. Only reason one star is the nice case everything came in. Such a good job it's not a present.

This comes as a little kit. It has a small and neat sewing case about 5" x 7" x 1" filled with 18 colours of thread on little cardboard spools. Not silks small measuring tape small magnifying glass some safety pins 30 metal needles 3 white buttons,3 black about 10 pins 5 press studs small embroidery scissors Stitch ripper Large plastic daarning needle The case is canvas and zips up The instruction guide is one sheet of paper with instruction for 13 stitch types The 'book' is a sampler style with printed designs. and is the SAME SIZE as the sewing case. The pages are a canvas material, wou will need to cut them to be able to work any stitching from the back. . It looks cute at first but then realisation dawns, you dont have a guide for how to make any of the stitches not described in the sheet of paper. You can sew over the designs but you are left to guess how. The sampler has text to describe the stitches needed but no instructions. Many of the names of stitches are misspelled eg butterhole stitch for buttonhole. corching for couching, as though someone writing the words has misheard them. Literally every page has these mistakes. Conclusion The idea is lovely, have a booklet with printed shapes to fill in with your newly learned embroidery stitches, but without actually knowing how to do them, it is not very useful and those spellings are just unprofessional and let the whole set down. I have given this only 2 out of 5 because while the little sewing case itself is useful , the description of the embroidery stitch book for beginners doesnt really describe what you get . If you want a little sewing set in a case then its nice though for £9.99 there are other alternatives Looking at the online photos, the book is the size described in the size PICTURE but not the huge book held by the girls or the large size the crafters are seen using ,so that I think is a little misleading.

First to the positives. This set comes with a full embroidery kit, containing everything you might possibly need to get started, all held in with elastic straps, & in a nice zip up case. There is a printed leaflet that explains very well how to complete all of the stitches in the book. It is very easy to follow, & includes pictures to help. All of which would make this a great gift for beginners. Then you get to the negatives, or one large one, which is the quality of the accompanying book for you to practice stitching in. This is an embroidery book, yet has some of the worst machine sewing it has been my misfortune to witness. For some reason it is in a green thread as well, making the bad stitching stand out against the grey fabric background like a sore thumb. The grey fabric stitched inside the book is fraying in places. The selvedge of the aida fabric for you to stitch on is unfortunately a creamish yellow colour, which just makes it look dirty to me. The designs on the front and back aren't even stitched on straight. It just utterly lets this set down. Plus the fact you have to cut the page folds to stitch on them means the pages are going to fray as well. Don't get me wrong, it's still going to work as a practice workbook, but I wouldn't want to get this for someone. It's a sewing kit with terrible sewing. So yeah, the embroidery kit is great, but the book not so much.

Would definetly recommend this product Everything you need is there Instructions easy to read and understand For the price it is definetly worth it quality of the items is very good Would definetly recommend this to anyone starting out
